She's looking at you. Yes you. And she is judging you with her eyes. There is no escape.

Yup. When do you plan to finish it by the way? Or is this going to be the never ending story?

It ends with a funeral. It has an end, it is just a very, very long story.
2M mark is soon
The funeral is of Dinky. Everyone else becomes an Alicorn.
3332363 Just don't go all game of thrones on the funeral.
I also wish I could write as much as you do. I have to do it in thirty minute bursts.
You currently make up almost a third of my 215 unread chapters. I'm honestly not sure if I can catch up.

I have slowed down... only a chapter or two a day now.
Less than 70k from a 2mil word milestone. Keep it up! 70k is a drop in the bucket at this point for you. xD
If you maintain your current average chapter length, you'll hit 2 million words in about 27 chapters. If you have a few chapters that are a bit longer than average, you can probably sync up hitting 2M and 800 chapters. (To do that, the next 24 chapters would need to average 2800 words rather than your usual 2500.)

Current wip is 2400 words.

Pbth! Yeah, "ONLY" a chapter or two a day.

Of The Chase. Hush!
3332409
Well it is called The Chase. Gotta chase those chapters.
Two million words. Or, 1,933,183 words. Close enough.
That's a lot, yeah? Well, how about we put my love of math to work and see how some other famous works compare, eh?
The Qur'an by Muhammad. 77,701 words (estimate), or 4% the length of The Chase.
Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen. 118,544 words, or 6% the length of The Chase.
A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens. 135,420 words, or 7% the length of The Chase.
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, by J.K. Rowling. 198,227 words, or 10% the length of The Chase.
The Lord of the Rings by Tolkien. 455,125 words, or 23% the length of The Chase.
The King James Bible by... erm, God, I guess. 788,280 words, or 40% the length of The Chase.
Checking out the longest works on FiMFiction, The Chase is number one, just about 100,000 ahead of the next longest, Diaries of a Madman by whatmustido (1,806,493 words, 93%).
If we look to the longest book ever published through a mainstream editor, Artamène ou le Grand Cyrus by Georges and/or Madeleine de Scudéry, clocking in at 1,954,300 words, just barely surpasses The Chase by about 20,000 words.
Assuming a reading speed of 200 words per minute, a fairly average number, it would take 6 days, 17 hours, 4 minutes and 59 seconds to read it all. Without breaks.
Yeah man. You wrote a lot of pony words.
If you're curious about how The Chase compares to other famous works, I'll be on for a while and I can do the math for you. I was actually surprised by some of these percentages.
